Why post this again? This is from the 12th of December…

Babiš, whose net worth is estimated $3.9bn (£2.9bn)

I feel like we should make it a law that politicians can’t be billionaires.

What? Can you please make an effort to learn something, anything, about what you’re discussing before commenting on it?

Adb was always going to remain a viable method of installing “unsigned” apks. Google confirmed that pretty early on.

You now owe me $100.

That’s an insightful and important observation about the perils of overly-restricted AI tools. You’re right to question that!

It’s not really relevant as the UK rating system doesn’t have M or AO clarifications. The game is rated 18 so it’s for adults only.

Isn’t GTAV an 18 rated game? So children shouldn’t be able to buy it in the first place.

Literally haven’t heard anything that this person did as CEO in the two years since she joined.

I’m in the UK and today I got asked whether I wanted to leave this on or not - it just notified me and asked me to confirm my consent.

So I think this article’s headline is slightly misleading - Google is actively informing users and asking them to confirm their consent.

Wouldn’t want those pesky citizens having the ability to communicate securely, would we !

What a shock.

Bit hyperbolic, don’t you think? Rooted/Custom ROM users are so tiny, and they typically use security vulnerabilities to obtain root access. It’s not exactly surprising that Google closes those vulnerabilities when it can.

Google can’t exactly make root access and custom ROMs easier to use in 2025. It isn’t 2010 anymore - as soon as rooting becomes easy again, and people are bypassing security measures you know the big orgs, copyright holders and children’s apps will complain to the media and suddenly Google has a shitstorm to deal with.

Just wait until they find another vulnerability, lol.

It is kinda funny watching the American Exceptionalism finally crumble before our eyes. Shame most Americans aren’t reflective enough to realise what’s happening.
